WHAT MORE CAN BE SAID?
JNO. HOGUH.

TO the Editor OF the Eagle,
Hyperbole has become an impossible
rhetorical figure in describing WichitaS
progress and prospects. In vain her admir-
ers pile Ossa upon Pelion of glowing super
latives to convey to strangers an adequate
conception Of the n,arvels which daily mark
our city's Aladdin-like Development. The
ordinations Of one and all who come is chat
of Shebas queen: 1.-The half has not been
told u.s." Doubling Thomases in cur midst
having had their faith fortified by every test
which the extreme OF cautious timi0ity
could suggest are now al the front vieing
with her most jealous apostles in indicating
Nichita's proud claim as the coming great
city Of the great southwest.
Investors while sowing their money broad
cast upon city lots or adjoining acres, can
rest with confidence as upon prophetic prom
Use that at will be returned to them TWEEN
ty, sixty and even al hundred fold
OF course longheaded financieIs, like genu-
inc masters of the military art, always
count time as the most important ally in
their operations. If it is mere matter of
temporary speculation, if the boom in their
judgment is ephenieral, they VIII infallibly
be found unloading at the earliest profitable
opportunity. II on the contrary they foresee
q certain advance in prices you viii Us GER
tainly find them estimating the present value
of their investments with reference to that
fact.
1t is 4 noteworthy circumstance in tie
present condition of the Wichita real estate
market that buyers are more eager than
sellers. The following remark made by q
stranger who came TO buy, illustrates tie
prevailing feeling: just as soon cs you
Offer one Of them his price he gets excited
and would back out of it if lie wasn't ashanl-
ed. It viii lie found that men who have
been in Wichita longest and are held IN high
est esteem for business sagacity, cling TO
their part of Gods footstool with the great
est tenacity. II truth it is hard to induce
a genuine oli-timer 20 sell at any narl.eta-
5le figure Their faith in the future OF
Wichita is perfect. What argument more
convincing than tlis need be presented TO
the hundreds and thousands who are flock
irg hither from the north, east, south and
west to partake of the good things which
assuredly await those who shall pitch their
teat in this land Of promise

WHAT A STRANGER SAW ON MAIN
ETRFET WICHITA

Tonight while | write
BY the glimmering light
With my brain in a whlrl
And my dear little girl
Climbing up to my knee,
Saying PA pa" and 'see,
Though it may not be right.
will try and endite
\ few lines just to tell
''Pshaw. It's known very well,"
OF the sights that l saw
On Main street, Wichita.
While wandering along
With tie increasing throng.
Of Irish and Dutch,
Real estate men and such.
I will say Though in truth
It is sad to state
That all | could hear
Was Of real estate.
Some stood in the door
OF their office and talked,
w bile a great many mora
Stood III groups on the walk.
There were some in their prime,
Others grown old in crime;
Please don't take offense,'
For with truth [ dispense,
Just as they whom | saw
On Main street, Wichita.
With unholy refrain,
Some related great gain;
Others spoke OF some .'lots"
They would sell ION the spot,
Or some valuable trade,
Or some sale they had made;
And they all spoke Of wealth,
But never of health,
Those men whom l saw
On kahn street, Wichita.
We meyer VII know
lis beyond human ken
In the regions below
What they do with those men;
But let us still hope
With their mind i'll at ease
They'll ne'er come to the rope,
But depart hence in peace.
Reader, don't take oifense
At what | relate,
am speaking Of dealers
In real estate;
OF sights that are seen
And sights that l saw
While crow(ling my way
Down Main street, Wichita.
